HE IS GOD!!!

Scripture
Luke 24:6-8 He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ ”Then they remembered his words.

Observation
What adds great credibility to the testimony of Christ's resurrection is the fact that it was widely prophesied and foretold. Jesus Himself had told his followers in various ways on several occasions that He would suffer and die and rise again. And the writings of the ancient prophets also foretold the same. The very sacrificial system that was instituted under Moses was a foretelling of the need for blood sacrifice of a perfect animal to represent their faith in a coming atoning Savior.

Application
God has sewn up the gospel message very clearly and thoroughly in history, and the Bible sets it forth. If one will simply investigate the evidence available, there is no excuse for missing the point or sidestepping the decision to believe, repent, and follow Christ. The way is clear and the choice is ours to make.

Prayer
Lord, help me keep out front the main issue of your death and resurrection to be the Savior. We can have a lot of questions and confusion about a lot of things, but it is faith and obedience to you based on your proving yourself to be God by the resurrection from the dead that is the key to our salvation and to a relationship with you. Amen.
